thirty-six catch - Traditional Chinese Martial Arts Grand

Actually this is a pretty good little book. It covers many aspects of Chin Nah including acupuncture points, training equipment, partner strengthening exercises, gripping practices and 36 techniques well drawn and clearly shown. The applications are strung together in a formal sequence which, considering Chin Nah's tactile emphasis is not a bad idea. One of the more useful applications of two-person choreographed training is to habituate the student to the hold BEFORE it gets too serious. NOTE: This is the SAME book, only in simplified Chinese writing and a slightly smaller formatSimplified Chinese Characters Only
